Hi

I don't know if a) you have heard of this before b) if it works or c) if you are interested... But thought I would share... Surlet it would work for other online players with better content (I would rather watch 4od)...

Works!

Love the avatar, I'm a Mark Gertler fan...

Another great freebie....thanks...

I got as far as installing. Then I tried to respond to a post on here and I got a message to say Firefox was off.

Perhaps that was the destabilizing mentioned in the article? I immediately uninstalled and it's back to normal.

Damn this Mac.

Er, if it's a proxy you might need to tell firefox about it.

Very helpful.

Mr. Firefox, this is Mr. Proxy. That sort of thing?

Even though firefox was already open and I was already logged on to BE?

I'm not especially techie minded but the article suggested it was automatic.

I've no idea how this will work and as I use a mac for watching TV I'm not about to find out. I do know that when I log onto the office vpn from home I can't browse until I set firefox up to use the company proxy server - even if firefox is already open and has web pages up. It's less of a pain in the arse than it sounds if you use quickproxy.

It's easy enough to switch it on & off from the taskbar.
I installed it & watched a show within 10 minutes.
It does screw the Shoutcast & Firefox up but I can't be arsed to reset everything so I'll just switch it on when I need to. I mainly use torrents but I think this is a decent enough tool to have in the arsenal..

Toolbar, taskbar, sidebar, drybar, wetbar, sandbar...it's all too much for my puny brain.

It reminds me of those computer savvy folk who say something is straightforward and then "show" you how to do it assuming you understand every word they use and follow every function they do in a blur.

Fair play...
Bottom right (on a Windows PC) usually..
Little red (off) or green (on) shield..
Right click & choose the first option on the menu...

It's like when people tell you to click "any" key - it scares me that the one I click wont be the right "any" key!

Ah...so you mean that when I'd installed it and got the message saying Firefox was off there was an icon at bottom right that isn't there now where I could have turned it back on?

I use Mozilla Firefox and have no red or green shields on the taskbar. The shield thing sounds like security stuff to me not browser- but what do I know.
